Dear Colleague,
The National Institutes of Health is actively recruiting candidates to participate in the upcoming National Graduate Student Research Festival, to be held October 12th - 13th, 2006 in Bethesda, Maryland. We are writing to request your assistance in identifying candidates for this exciting event. To be eligible, students must be enrolled in a PhD program in the U.S. and on schedule to complete their PhD degree by October, 2007. We will be selecting up to 250 students to spend two days talking about their research through poster sessions, meeting other students from around the U.S., learning about the research being done at NIH, and exploring postdoctoral training opportunities on the NIH campuses. We would appreciate it if you could pass this email and the attached flyer to students nearing completion of their dissertation or all students in your PhD program.
The deadline for application is June 1 and the online application can be found at:
Thanks in advance for your help. I would be happy to answer any questions about the Festival which we believe will be a rewarding and informative event for all who participate.
Sincerely,
Richard McGee, Ph.D.
